The ongoing series of PTI protest failures, where objectives remain unmet and momentum quickly dissipates, has diminished the enthusiasm of both political activists and the people. Historically, the PTI has faced difficulties in maintaining large-scale mobilisation, with initial surges often fading due to poor planning and mismanagement. This has led to widespread disorder and unrest in the capital, where protests, instead of achieving their intended goals, have often resulted in chaos and disruption.
These recurring protests have transformed Islamabad into a city of blockades, with road closures severely impacting daily life. The education sector, with its concentration of institutions in the capital, suffers as students and faculty are unable to reach their campuses, leading to significant setbacks. If the PTI fails to achieve any tangible results, this final call may become its last misstep. Without a clear and effective strategy, the march could become another major disruption in Islamabad, a city already dealing with security challenges and ongoing threats of terrorism.

The PTI's call for a protest in Islamabad today spread chaos among party leaders. In this situation, the government and law enforcement agencies must crack down on the protest as these constant marches on the capital are impeding the progress of the country.
